Chapter 33
Anikas pov:
I rolled over my bed to be woken up by the glint of the sun hitting my face. I groaned, not wanting to wake up. "Five for minutes", I muttered, closing my eyes in the hopes of falling asleep again but getting disrupted by the birds tweeting.
"Good morning baby, I hope you slept well," Christian said, kissing my forehead, but before I could reply, I could tell I was going to be sick. I immediately turned over and threw up in the bucket that Christian placed beside the bed because I obviously can't get to the bathroom. Christian kept rubbing my back as I continued to throw up.
"Hey baby, could you do me a quick favour? Would you please stop making me throw up?" I begged, talking to my baby. I wiped my face and lips with my sleeve, not worrying about how awful it is.
"Morning, babe, I would kiss you, but I'm sure you don't want to right now," I said, cuddling into his chest.
"Even though I'd love to cuddle all day, we are going to be late for your 12weeks check up if we don't start getting ready." He said, smiling as I cuddled more into him, not even making a move to get in.
"Can you carry me, please?" I pouted in the hopes he'll get me in my chair.
"Of course, your majesty. Anything for you," he said, making me giggle like a schoolgirl *how ironic.*

"Mr and Mrs Rave? the nurse called us out. Ok, here goes nothing, I thought to myself, feeling sick. Christian and I followed the nurse through the maze of a corridor and entered the room as the nurse closed the door behind us to block the bustle of the busy hospital.
"My name is Jennifer. I will be your nurse for today. Why don't you just get yourself on the table and let's see what his babies are up to, shall we?" The nurse said, grabbing the monitor and the weird contraption.
"Does the bed go any lower? It's just too high for me to transfer from a wheelchair." I asked the nurse, not wanting to risk hurting myself or my baby.
"Sadly, the bed only goes higher. This hospital needs to start adapting to all the equipment as everything is too outdated and not accessible for everyone. I can check if we can transfer you to another hospital, but priority patients will push your scan's waiting list back." The nurse said, trying to help me.
"Don't worry about it, babe. I will help you. You don't even need to ask or feel guilty about it." Christian said, kissing my forehead and carrying me onto the bed. Once he made sure that I was comfy, he pulled the chair next to me so he could sit down and take my hand. I made sure to lower my pants down a little bit so that the nurse can do the scan.
"Okay, so this gel is gonna be a little bit cold, but it will be finished in no time." She said, making me jump as the gel was freezing! she moved the machine around on my belly without speaking or seeing anything, and all you could hear was the noise of the ultrasound machine. She looked a bit worried looking at the monitor and got up.
"I will be right back. I'm just going to consult with the doctor in the hallway.
"Christian, what's happening? What's wrong with our baby?" I felt warm tears falling down my cheek
"Don't worry, babe; I'm sure everything will be ok." He said, hugging me.
Hi, I'm Doctor Bliss; I'm sorry for the wait. My colleague just needed to check something with me; if it's ok with you, I'm just going to give you a quick scan." He said, studying the monitor in utter silence.
"Is the baby ok, doc?" Christian asked, breaking the silence becoming agitated as every second passes.
"So I'm afraid it looks as though your stomach and uterus appear to be badly bruised from previous trauma. Mr Rave, could you leave the room, please?" The doctor said, scaring me, making me worried about the baby and angry because he's accusing Christian.
"No! Christian can stay; he's the father of the baby and my husband for that matter; however, he's not the one who hurt me; yes, you're right I was abused in the past, but it was by my parents, and I think the wound on my stomach is from that. However, I'm safe now. Now enough about that. Can you please, for the love of God, tell me how the baby is?!" I said, feeling overwhelmed, but feeling my hand in Christians seemed to calm me down a little.
"I'm so sorry for the accusation Mr and Mrs Rave. It seems as though with the amount of bruising from the result of the abuse, you may appear to struggle with this pregnancy, especially with this; congratulations, Mrs Rave, you are pregnant with twins!" the doctor said.
"OMG OMG OMG, Christian!" I screamed, hugging him.
We're having twins, holy fuck!" Christian whispered in shock.
